here is a piece speaking in washington. [video clip] >> i think you will see economic growth slowed by as much as 3% to 5%. it will throw another 2 million people out of work. unemployment will go to 9%. i think it is about a third that will go over the cliff. people will go there very quickly for lots of different reasons. you will see the numbers in the fourth quarter. i think the real problem is if we do not get a deal right away. that will lead to chaos. host: chaos he says. guest: i think it is a fair assessment to say there is a chance we might go off the cliff. if we do, it is not for a long cliff. i am a little more optimistic. i believe there has been a lot more movement than a few years ago. if you go, a cbo is projecting this in the first quarter. we are looking ahead -.5 for the whole year. cbo has estimated that the unemployment would go over 9%. of americans. host: some are using word slope, maybe it is not so sharp. if washington fails to get it done by the first, it will shrink. monuments will stay open. ame
